Abstract (en)

[origin: US4786262A] An electrical contact device for transmitting high electric current includes a cylindrical contact pin (2) and a spring-loaded contact jack (1) for receiving the pin. A plurality of essentially axially parallel spring-loaded contact elements are provided which extend axially on the cylindrical inner wall of the jack. In order to allow contact over large tolerances between the contact pin (1) and contact spring jack (2), the jack is provided with intermediate spring contact elements (4,5) between it and an outer sleeve body (3) is which the jack is mounted with spring-loading both axially and radially.
